Men...

Between my sons and my husband I don't know which one is worse. My son J. is getting out of control with staying out all weekend long and giving me all kinds of attitude. So tonight I sat him down and told him the things are about to change. He is no longer allowed to stay out all weekend long and he has to come home after work during the week. But of course my husband who has had a few too many which always makes it a fun (sarcastic) night decided to get into the conversation and told him to get out. Now I told him if he doesn't like the new rule changes that he had one month to find somewhere else to live. But I in no way would through him out tonight. So what started out as a conversation/explanation ended up in a screaming match with my husband doing all the screaming. My other son N. was told if he doesn't start doing what he is told he can go live with his father. He was told to clean his room last week and it is still not done. Boy these are the days that I wish I could run away from home....I sure do hate responsibility.....it really sucks sometimes.

Sept 11 and Update on Lucy the cat

First I would like to say that my thoughts and prayers are with all who have suffered so dearly on this day and my heart goes out to them...Don't ever Forget. Remembering this always makes my problems and inconveniences seem so trivial.


Second our cat Lucy had 4 kittens last night around 10pm...I will post some pictures..they are sooo cute.

Here goes...

So where do I begin...This week at work sucked...so what else is new...S is leaving on the 20th and they haven't even put the ad in the paper yet...don't know what they are going to do and I hope they don't think I am going to do her work until they hire someone. They had a month to get this done. This is the kind of crap the pisses me off.

We had our last Fayetteville After Five on Thursday. All I have to say is Amen to that. It is hot and sticky and by the time I get home I am tired and grossed out from the night. This Thursday is our Premier party for the new show. Don't ask me what it is cause I don't know. There is that communication again.

My son J. is driving me crazy. I don't know what he is thinking but he just can't keep on doing things and not being responsible for them. Can't wait for him to move out too.

On an other note...the bonus room is almost done. It is really starting to look good and organized. Can't wait until it is finished. We also have been looking around for book shelves but haven't found anything so far that we like. So we keep on looking.

Got a call Thursday night from my daughter S. She is pregnant. She really caught me off guard with this one. I didn't know if I should be happy or sad. She was a upset so I told her what ever she decided I would support her 100%. She talked it over with her boyfriend J. and his family and they have decided to keep it. I told her under no circumstance was she going to quit college. Yes she is on birth control and I know she is very careful about taking it cause she know what could happen...I am still not sure how I feel about this...Oh by the way they got rid of their cute puppy...not enough time to train it right...but it did stay in the family which is good so they can go see it anytime they want.

Well back to work tomorrow...yuk...off to bed...

Picture of my new tattoo

Here is my new cross tattoo with red rosary beads wrapped around it. It is on my back from the middle of it to the bottom of my back. It took about 2-3 hours and was done at Chop Shop in Hope Mills, NC. I would highly recommend them. My husband also got a cross tattoo on his left upper arm on the same day.






Also found out that our cat Lucy is expecting...so if anyone wants a kitty please let me know. Here is a picture of her....

Needed some time to myself....

I know it has been a while but I just needed some time to myself. It has been crazy at work. It all started with the city deeding us some land so we could move and build a new Museum. But then they tried to back out and things just went crazy... the bad thing about it is that most of the employees were left out of all the decisions and information. This was very frustrating. It also makes it hard to get up and go to work. My co-worker S. has sold her house and her husband is almost done with the Air Force and they will be leaving. She is the only one that I mostly talk to there and now... I just don't know. It is frustrating to go to work and not talk to anyone. I could stay home and do that. I don't have friends here so I do rely on my work for that. The more we PCS the harder it gets since the kids are all older and there isn't any contact with parents. My husband has been working like crazy and he just got back from a 2 week trip. So it was really quiet in the house.

Well my son J did it again. He got another ticket. This time for rolling through a stop sign. I just don't know what I am going to do with him. Only a couple more years and he will be on his own. Then he can pay his own car insurance. Then finally it will set in that when he does these stupid things it cost money and lots of it.

My son N. is getting used to his new school. He says he doesn't like it but I think with time he will meet friends and he will like it better. He is doing really well with driving. I haven't let him drive into the busy part of Fayetteville but he has been all around Hope Mills.

My husband and I both took off on Friday to spend some quality time together. We really needed it. We also started to clean out our bonus room. We really needed to do that too. It is coming along and starting to look like a normal room. Can't wait to get it done.

We also went away for a night. We went to New Bern and to the Attmore Oliver house for an old fashion viewing. It was really good and I enjoyed myself. But of course this trip didn't go without a hitch...we got there and it was too early to check in at our hotel so we parked the bike and walked around downtown for a while. When the time came we went to our hotel...Days Inn Historical District... I would not recommend this hotel...and was surprised to see where it was located...but anyway I went to the front desk and told him my name and he said he didn't have a reservation for us. I really do think God was looking out for us on this one. So I called Orbitz who I do all my reservations through and they got my money back and we went somewhere else...Comfort Inn on the water...It was beautiful. Then we went to dinner which was part of the package on the Haunted House tour. WE had a limited menu to look at and it really was some weird combinations....ex Shrimp and grits...Yea I know I am a true Yankee...and grits is not my thing. But we both pick something and to our surprise it was very good...No I didn't go with the shrimp and grits.

After the Haunting and dinner we walked back to our hotel and had a very nice evening. Which again we both needed...so tomorrow we will finish our bonus room and then back to work we go....
